Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a nearly blind refugee, was found dead after Border Patrol abandoned him miles away from his home and without notifying his family or attorney.

This is absolutely horrifying — and completely preventable. There must be a full investigation immediately.

The death of a nearly blind refugee in Buffalo, New York, days after Border Patrol agents dropped him off at a coffee shop alone, has prompted an investigation into the circumstances of his final days and drawn sharp criticism from the mayor, who called the incident "deeply disturbing." https://t.co/GDMQ0vAtYu

President Trump’s latest tariffs are an attack on Canadian workers, families, and businesses. My government will ensure our response has maximum impact in the US and minimal impact here in Canada, while supporting the workers impacted.

My government will keep our tariffs on until the Americans show us respect and make credible, reliable commitments to free and fair trade.

BREAKING: Argentina issues international arrest warrants for Min Aung Hlaing & other Myanmar military officials over the Rohingya genocide.

But Aung San Suu Kyi? Added by the Argentine prosecutor in 2024, but faced pushback from BROUK. A legal fudge or a political calculation? The document does not confirm whether the court ultimately issued a warrant for her, but it does highlight that her name was considered in the broader legal process.

[Shafiur Rahman @shafiur]

For years Sheikh Hasina insisted on repatriating the Rohingya even though it was unsafe. Now it's her turn to face a one-way ticket home. What goes around, comes around - diplomatic karma!

Similarly, Bangladesh authorities should know that repatriation is easier said than done!

[Shafiur Rahman @shafiur]

At the forthcoming international conference on the Rohingya, how can international organisations support Bangladesh in adopting more humane policies?

Today, @IntlCrimCourt chief prosecutor sought an arrest warrant for Myanmar junta leader Min Aung Hlaing. @MatthewFSmith says, “Min Aung Hlaing’s victims span Myanmar’s many ethnic groups and number in the tens of millions. He must be...brought to justice.”https://t.co/gHuqjWWd4q

For comparison: In June 2024, Argentine Prosecutor Guillermo Marijuán sought international arrest warrants for 25 Myanmar officials, including Min Aung Hlaing and Aung San Suu Kyi.

Why hasn’t the ICC pursued a similarly comprehensive approach? #Rohingya #Accountability

Bangladesh has appointed an Adviser on Rohingya issues! Gawd help us!

He is Khalilur Rahman. He is the High Representative of the Chief Adviser on the Rohingya Crisis and priority issues. He will be entitled to the status, salary allowance, and proportional facilities of an advisor during his tenure.

[Shafiur Rahman @shafiur]

Today, 600 Rohingya refugees were herded onto a Bangladesh Navy vessel & relocated to Bhasan Char. Upon landing, they were loaded onto tractors like cargo & transported to Cluster 113, which will now be their designated “home” on what observers have aptly condemned as a prison island.
